-Break-Φ “Hey Orb”“What is it, Willow.”“Where the hell are you leading us? We have been moving east for some time, and I swear you told me Deno is to the south, so where are we going? Cause I am pretty sure we’re Lost.”“Don’t you trust me, Willow?”“How can I trust you, you have never been there before, so your just as blind as me when it comes to directions in the outside world.”“That’s rude, unlike you. I at least have a vague idea of where we’re going.”“And unlike you, I have to find my way back after dropping you guys off.”“Well then, maybe instead of complaining, you should focus on remembering how we came.”“I don’t want to hear that from you. Since we started, you have been giving Willow the 2nd half-assed instructions while you have been preoccupied messing with Cyrus.”“Well, what am I supposed to do? Leave him alone. He is not only a dragon but looks like a hero from all the adventure stories I read. I want to hang him up on my wall and frame him.”“We have been over

Two hours later“Where finally here, so Sparrow you can stop puking.”In response to what I say, he continues puking. He has thrown up so much over these last two hours that a hole must have burnt through his oesophagus. Though the vomit has gradually decreased over time, his stomach is running out of ammunition. But regardless, “Let’s get going to Deno,” I say to Cyrus as we begin to walk forward.When we enter, we see an incredibly bustling city which has the highest amount of people I have ever seen. No matter where I look; there is someone doing something different than all the rest. Unable to control myself at the site of this all, I run up and start speaking to random people.“How are you today.”“I didn’t know it was possible to have a stomach this big.”“What a cute child.”“What is this vegetable? I haven’t ever seen anything like this.”“Is that a ship I see over there.”“That Building in the distance is like nine Willow the 2nd tall.”This is Deno, the port city. I am compl

-Break-After running around for a while, we eventually found a secluded area to sit down. While there, the man started to patch up the boy’s injuries and said to the boy, “So can you tell me why you would do something as foolish as stealing?”“It’s none of your business old man,” the kid says. But moments later, he is slapped in the face by the man.“You fool, something has driven a young boy like you to fall into the theft. Of course that’s my business, so whatever it may be, I will certainly come and help you, so please tell me why.”The boy who freezes up for a second, says with his head hanging low, “There is someone I want to use this sword to kill.”“My god, why would you want to do such a thing.”“You see, my father and I came to Deno to expand our family business. But when we arrived a few years ago, a man who claimed to be an expert in helping small business rise came up to my father. As this man promised, he helped my father little by little. Gained our trust, and one day w

-Break-I was looking at the vast blue sea in front of me, entirely memorised. I read that the ocean was enormous, but I never expected this. It is so large that it makes Fimbulwinter look small in comparison. I am in love with this sight, but the part that makes it all better is the suffering of Sparrow beside me.As Sparrow vomits from seasickness, “You feel that Sparrow, that’s justice I hope you enjoy it.”“I already apologised, so please get me some water.”“No, I will still punish you for all the other people you have robbed without my knowledge.”So as Sparrow continues to vomit, Cyrus comes from inside the ship. When I see him, I say, “You changed back to the clothes Pine gave you. I liked the outfit the church gave you.”“I did, too, but-u-u-ut it stood out too much. I felt embarrassed.”“You shouldn’t. You looked amazing.” Suddenly as I said this, a swarm of giant butterflies came flying in our direction. What a pretty sight, I think to myself. But mere seconds after I do th

-Break-Φ While eating the delicious breakfast they prepared for us in the inn. I look over at Orb, who has bandages on his body. Ever since this morning, he has been mumbling the same thing under his breath “I am going to crush you fox. I am going to crush you fox.” Without stopping.This is because, at some point, Orb snuck out of the inn last night and was attacked by a group of minus spirits. So Zashiki went to get help, but when she returned to the scene, all the minuses were dead, and Orb was left unconscious in a rather unfaltering position. When he woke up, Orb claimed he fell unconscious, but he later informed me that a person in a fox mask killed all the minuses and knocked him out.“O-O-O-ORB, why won’t you tell anyone what ac-c-c-tually happened? This fo-o-o-ox masked person might be dangerous.”“No way in hell, Cyrus; I don’t need anyone getting in the way of my revenge. I can barely look Zashiki in the eye with the state I was left in yesterday. So, I will find that pers

Φ After leaving Orb, I walk around looking for the Medicine shop. While walking around, I repeat the same thing in my head: do your best. After a while, I stop and realise I don’t remember how I got here.Freaking out, I try to retrace my steps till I am somewhere familiar, but it is to no avail. So decided to go up and ask someone for directions.“Umm, Hel-l-l-llo.”“Hello.”“D-D-Do you know where the inn with the little fox-x-x-x’s is.”The man then looks as if he is thinking and then gives me a set of directions. That went well. I was able to do something to get out of my situation, this is good. So I followed the man’s directions and arrived at the wrong inn.Remembering what Zashiki said, I realised the fox spirits should be normal everywhere. I used the wrong spirit when asking for directions.As I walk away from the false inn, more lost than before, I start to feel sick. There are so many people all around me. Some are younger than me, and they don’t look nearly as inept as me.

While I stare into her face while she is pinned to the ground, she suddenly turns her head to the side where our eyes can’t meet. While avoiding eye contact, she says, “Get off of me and give me back my mask, you utter pile of garbage.”“If you want to be so rude, you should say such things to my face or are you too shy for that.”“JUST GET OFF!” She screams as her tails try to attack me.I move away in time, grabbing her basket in one hand while having her mask in another. “That wasn’t nice.”She stands up with her back facing me and says, “You attacked me first.”“Only because you humiliated me for no reason. Do you know the looks I get while walking around the city?”“Don’t worry about that since your existence is embarrassing enough.”Annoyed I say, “As punishment for your big mouth, I will eat all the food in this basket right here, right now.”She jumps forward and tries to hit me due to my declaration. While she tries to hit me, she turns around, and I look directly into her fa

Walking back to the inn after a rather long day, Zashiki greets us. “How did today go for the both of you,” she said.“Fine, I got solutions to some of the problems we were facing. Though I had to run all over the city to find them.”“That sounds wonderful. You probably got some great sightseeing while you were running around.”“You know, I am pretty sure I was so obsessed with getting what I wanted that I didn’t even bother to look at any of the sights in the city.”“Well, that’s a pity, but for however long you stay here, I hope you manage to get some in.”“I promise I will,” I say as we open the door to our room, but I am greeted with a strange sight. The Gyaku kitsunes have Sparrow tied up and are kicking him while he is on the ground.“What are you guys doing to our guests,” Zashiki says.“Oh, don’t worry. Even if they drown him, we wouldn’t care much.”“It’s not that, I have never seen them do something this aggressive before. This isn’t a good sign. All of you are coming with m

Φ As Dagda laughs in front of me, I say, "So if you would excuse me."With his same cherry smile as always, he says, "Haha, your jokes are as tasteful as your clothes. Now Medb where is my money?""Money? You mean the financial instrument we have assigned value to for the sake of switching things we have made into items we have collected from our environment and from others through labour, intelligence and ingenuity?"With his smile fading a bit, he says, "Hahaha, yes. Now where is it?""Dagda what really is value? Is it something kings assign value to-,""Yes."Putting my finger on his lips, I say, "OR! Is it the exchange of wills from one person to another, so isn't my mere smile payment enough?""Not a chance, now my money."I get thrown off my balance as he rejects me, and then I lean on him and say, "We have known each other for a long time, and you still don't trust me.""I trusted you decades ago when I invested in your research hoping for a return.

Location: City of GoriasΦ For six days a festival has been raging on within the city of Gorias, and the entire providence of Gorias.The beastkin during the festivals made it a point to dress in clothes far more ornate than usual; wearing flowers throughout their bodies, or dressing in clothes made entirely out of plants.Clothes made out of animals had the motif of using materials from animals their innate beast was hunted or were hunted by as a sign of greater connection.The druids made clothes out of plants that could be modified with their beast blood battle, allowing them to change their designs of the clothes, and throughout the city, designated druids were given instructions to change the clothes of those who passed by.Many wore jewellery such as brooches, pins, armlets, rings, and torcs against the animal parts of their bodies as a way to honour their heritage, while many others decorated their bodies with paint or tattoos which represent ancient stories or those who they c

Minagrain in front of me turns incredibly nervous, and she blushes again and again. Her ears start to move wildly, and she takes her tail and uses it to cover her face. She jumps from one foot to the next and then falls to the ground while still holding her tail.Then she looks at me, and she nods."Was that a, yes?" A say with a face of disbelief."Yes," She gestures towards me.I pick her up, twirl her around, and say, "I happen to be the happiest man around!"She turns more and more red as I twirl her around, and we both laugh together. Then stopping I hold her tight and put the ring on her finger which makes her raise her arm to stare at it, before looking directly at me and smiling.Is it even fair to be this cute? Is it even fair to be this adorable? It is like this little girl has a grip on my soul, and there is nothing I can do about it. I am completely dominated by her."Don't worry Minagrain, I will get this traded for some jewellery for your tail instead of this human tradi

So now I want to go stay with my hot wife.""Well, I haven't been able to meet with my hot wife yet, so we all stay single together!""Don't lump me in with the both of you."Aurelius and Culainn say, "Minagrain," and instantly all the energy in my legs fades and I fall to the ground."Low blow.""Someone needs to take down your ego every now and then."Reaching h

Aurelius looked up at me with a pained and frustrated expression. It is the face of someone who has had to swallow a harsh reality that they would rather reject under all circumstances."What? Is the truth hard to hear? Well as you said people are free to make whatever choices they want, so if she didn't like it, she could have just killed herself couldn't she have.""Setanta shut the hell up!""But you would hate that wouldn't you, you want her to be alive and suffer through all of that, just so you can make her pump out her fifth set of kids that look like you don't you."He raises his fist to punch me, and as he does, I say, "Hit me all you want but understand that the only reason you can is because I let you. You're no different than a pet biting its master in this moment, you can get as sad and angry as you want but your survival demands good behaviour.Even after all I said you still want to live so bad that you won't punish me for my words.

The beastkin rushes at Setanta from all sides, and he fights and fights and fights.Red Branch battle arts; Starflower, Clover, Tulip, Sky flower, Sonic thrust, Camellia Japonica, Passiflora, Morning Glory.Again and again, he uses the forms of his style to strike down the foes who come for his neck, using whatever weapons he can, even his own flesh.His weapons and flesh break down from this constant battle, but Setanta doesn't stop until he starts to push them back.Scared by this Dáire rookies rush back in to help him and his men, and the fight rages on even more.They come towards Setanta again, and again ripping his flesh out which causes Setanta to scream in pain again and again. But never falls.To all those who see this sight fear and awe is put in their hearts as they await for him to crumble down and simply give up, but again and again he rises to strike down more and more beastkin until, the very foes he is fighting start to feel more strain then he does.The rookies, the e

Setanta lands and the moment he does, he moves to the crowd and grabs a knife from one of the members of the mob who are all holding miscellaneous weapons. Then he moves towards Culainn and Aurelius pulling them out of harm's way."You ok old man, do you need some worms?"Culainn looks at Setanta and says, "Don't make fun of birds you stupid wolf."Setanta smiles, then gets up and faces Dáire, then he says, "First son of the Lugh Ó Faoláin, next head of the house of Faoláin and the next king of Gorias, Setanta Ó Faoláin. I give you only until the next time I blink to explain to me what just happened to my compatriots."Blinking, he says, "Times up."Setanta glares at all of them with a ferocity that makes many of them except Dáire elite warriors shudder in fear.Dáire looks at Setanta, and says, "Son of Lugh, a human was caught walking in our lands, and will be judged by the rules of it.""This is Biorg land.""But this is the providence of Findias, so it still all falls under the con

"But before that, I will thank the brave warrior who put his life at risk to warn of this traitor's location."Both me and Aurelius look confused, but then the beastkin holding down Daragh let him go and he comes over to Dáire.Aurelius seeing this says, "Daragh, what's going on?""The tunnel we passed through on our way here releases orange dust when one makes lots of noise within it, and as our horses went through it the orange dust was released everywhere showing our pursuers that we had gone off the main path and had taken a shortcut. Any member of the village would be aware of this.""You sold us out?"With a disgusted expression, Daragh says, "Of course I did you human. No matter how I am treated I know not to make deals with the devil that could curse all my people."Daragh walks away and as he does a man comes out from the mob of people throughout the forest, and says, "Good work my son, you have truly shown that it was worth raising you."As his father rubs his head, he makes

Location: Outer edge of the Village of Lann BhuanΦ Grooming the hair of the horses by the riverside, I say, "Sorry for Setanta's nonsense, we are lucky he managed to catch you from the air when we fell off that Clift. But don't hold it against him, the little boy seems to be in a dire strait."Beside me Daragh comes up and looks at the horses, so I turn to him and say, "Do you want to touch one?""Can I!" He says with a bright expression.Picking him up, I hold him near the horse and say, "Horses are very highly perceptive, and will sense distrust. So, make sure to earnestly approach.""I will."He slowly brings his hands close and then touches its head. As he does the horse playfully rubs its head against Daragh's hand, and he looks back at me whilst saying, "He is touching me back! I think he likes me!""You're right about that, it seems he senses what a good man you are."Daragh looks at the horse, and says, "They never let me go near one back at home. Horses are animals which are
